[MonoDevelop] Comments on Stetic GU designer

[Tony Caduto]

Hi,
First off I am a win32 developer used to Delphi and VS.net.

The GUI designer looks great, except for the fact that there does not 
appear to be a way to layout controls the same way as the win32 version 
of SharpDevelop or Delphi or Visual Studio.  If there is a way to layout 
your form without having to put panels/containers all over the place to 
get things to line up, I would like to know :-)

Seriously, is such a way to add controls to a form being considered?  
Developers are going to be coming from the win32 world where you can 
simply drop a button on a form and position it without a container, and 
they will not like the current way the GUI designer works.  A win32 
developer is going to try out Monodevelop,  and when they drop a button 
on a form and it expands to fill up the whole form, I don't think they 
will stick around long.

Thanks,
